Just as I said, head in sand. Can you google, or are you to lazy.

People have a way of finding out, I worked in management for 40 years, don't be so naive.

In many corporations have 1 pay scale for all positions. Take for example a technical specialist. The band for that position may have 10 grades to which you can advance. Beginning technical specialists would start at the small pay grade regardless of sex.

You can advance in the band based on performance and years of experience. These factors will affect the rate of pay to different people.

But if the title, experience and performance is the same men and women have to be equal.

Ten years ago? Hillary is campaigning now. Can't you find anything current to support her?

No, the point is that I have used Google and have not found anything that is real evidence of inequality of pay between male and female for the same job. Everything available suggests that women are not taking the same jobs, and settle on lower paying jobs. Not all women, but enough to move the overall scale so that it appears that the totality of the women population are generally making less. I can find figures that suggest a pay disparity between city workers and rural workers, where the city workers get paid more than country workers. So, does that mean that those out in the country areas should insist on getting paid as much as those in the city?

The point is that there is really no current evidence that women are being discriminated upon when it comes to men and women in the same job positions. If there is any evidence, it is rare.

So, friend it appears that if you are willing to believe Hillary without any evidence that she is telling the truth, then you probably also believe that she is not guilty of mishandling classified information, or using her private unsecured computer to transmit classified information. You probably also believe that the Clintons did not steal go property when they left the White House, even though they were forced to pay the gov back thousands of dollars. And you probably don't believe that she lied to the families of the victims of Benghazi. So, I bet your use of "head in the sand" is ironic, considering.

The government is not a union. Why does everyone insist that the gov regulate every aspect of private business. They can't even run their own business (Gov.) properly. I have seen female owned businesses discriminate against men by only hiring women. I have seen minority owned businesses only hire minorities. We only have a free country if the gov allows Freedom. Hillary is exploiting an old problem, thinking that women are stupid enough to believe her and support her. She has a very low opinion of women, but after the exploits of her husband, I can understand why and almost sympathize.

You don't get it... Without affirmative action, quotas, and government making laws to help them... There wouldn't BE minority/women owned businesses. They're just not cut out for it. They can't make them succeed without help. That's why there is so much help available to them. It's why laws that apply to a white male owned business can't apply to them. When on an EQUAL footing, the man wins almost every time. It's genetics. Women aren't genetically made the same as men. Women excel at many things, but growing a REAL business (cupcakes, decorating, cleaning, and childcare aren't REAL businesses like steel making, heavy manufacturing, etc) isn't one of them. Same for the minorities, they excel in other areas. Nobody complains that the NBA or NFL is filled with mostly black players, because they're good at it. But they complain when they're underrepresented as CEOs or scientists when they're NOT good at it.

If the government didn't force us, they'd be sitting on the side lines, unable to compete. Women would be home raising their own children instead of passing that job onto some 3rd world immigrant. Men could go back to doing what they do best, taking care of their family. Leveling the playing field would be a good thing.

I'm going to assume that your post is just bait. It's too ridiculous to take seriously.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ ZZZZZ

Sounds like you were price fixing "wages."

"Predominately in divorces women always have the edge over men. In death women outlive men and thus here are a lot of rich widows out there.:D"

What does this have to do with wages, if you were the average department of human resources person we are in trouble with that type of thinking.

"A secretary should not expect to get paid as much as the executive."

Do you ever read your post and see how stupid your examples are?

'A federal law, the Equal Pay Act (EPA), requires employers to pay men and women equally for doing the same work -- equal pay for equal work. The Equal Pay Act was passed in 1963 as an amendment to the Fair Labor Standards Act and can be found at 29 U.S.C. § 206."

If what you say is true, why do we need this law.

Also, I am not your friend, but its okay for trump and cruz to lie and lie. If you are going to accuse one don't be a hypocrite. Your a typical repub babbler, but what can you expect from the minority party, lie and then swear to it.

So, if there has been an equal pay law on the books for more than 50 years, what is all the fuss about? Do we need more laws?

MAybe it is because they may be in "equal" jobs but the women are just not doing "equal" work, hence leaving the door open for variances.

Before the feminist supporters jump in I believe the same goes for ANYBODY in equal jobs....I just followed suit in the gender nature of the posts.

The person who who the better in the same job should and will get better ratings and better ratings will result in more of a pay increase, thus leading to different people in the same job getting different rates of pay.

If there is an issue that a female should get the same because of being female........not on my watch they would not!!

Boy, you got that right. I've worked at a lot of places with women "supposedly" doing the same job. Well, the women skate, they NEVER do the same as men. It's either too hard, too heavy, too dirty, too sweaty, it's always too something. Then they have the chutzpah to brag to everyone how "equal" they are.

Men and women are different. VERY different. We shouldn't be putting square pegs into round holes. Some things men are better at, some things women are better. Use those differences as nature intended, don't think we're going to win the fight against nature.

Women should raise their children as best they can. Men should provide the family support. It's worked for thousands of years, our way has NOT been working. The amount of people receiving food stamps, 50 million (mostly women/children), would make a soup line 9,500 miles long. That's 3 times across the US. So, lets go back to the traditional family and traditional roles.
